Petition Action

Three day weekends

Petition Details

I would like the government or parliament to change the number of weekend days to three per week (Saturday, Sunday & Monday)

Additional Information

Family should come before work and school. Three day weekends would allow for more time to spend with friends and family which would highly impact the nation's mental health in a positive manner.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

UK law places limits on the total amount of time someone can work during a week and the minimum amount they can be paid an hour, but it doesn't specify how many or which days of the week they have to work. This would be a decision for employers.

We could accept a petition calling for the school week to be limited to four days per week, if that's something you'd like to see happen.
